EDIT: It's not their truck but they do have it for a week+ to create content. Sounds like it's a loaner from Ford.

You can save yourself 30 minutes, nothing new there at all. The regurgitation just for views is getting old. Thank you Youtube for at least having 2x playback speed and skip ahead.

Kyles MIA on a road trip to Alaska, I believe.
We'll see if their content is engaging enough without him.

He's on his way back. He's on the InsideEVs podcast right now. I think he said he's in Iowa? They're driving the Rivian back from Illinois. They'll have the R1T and Lightning side by side all next week. Should be some interesting stuff coming from @OutofSpecKyle.

Take a deep breath. I’ve been watching YouTubers shove themselves in a drunk for nearly a decade now.
I’m just wondering when it’ll stop. Nobody is jumping into a trunk to show me they can fit…

I’ll be doing all the things with this ASAP! Rushing back to Colorado now - keep an eye on Motoring / Reviews / Overlanding / One Lap channels for all the goods. If you have any requests drop them here and I’ll answer all questions at the end of our time with the truck

A drag race is of course necessary (even if we know the winner).
what about a tug of war?
Would love to see a real world cargo comparison (how much stuff can you really fit in each, under a tonneau (bigger bed and frunk vs. extra gear tunnel)
Efficiency and range comparisons
Nav system comparison - who does a better job routing (using the built in systems - Android Auto / Apple carplay give the Lightning an unfair advantage)
Park side by side and have passers-by say which is their favorite.

-Impressions of sound system quality in the Rivian and the 8- and 18-speaker sound systems in the Lightning.
-Flat-land towing range comparison between the Rivian and the Lightning. The Ike Challenge is interesting but not at all applicable to my towing situation.
-Charging curve differences between the lightning with without Max Tow (if you can locate a second Lightning without Max Tow).
-ADAS comparison
Edit: Also, how much payload weight actually affects range. Everyone is obsessed with the 1000 pound payload that Ford may have used with efficiency benchmarking of the Lightning.
